Just to keep you informed Gents that John has been residing in Clatterbridge Hospital Oncology unit for the past week,

he is at the moment in CONWAY WARD BAY 3. I recall my own stay of four and a half months in hospital, and how uplifting it was to be informed that a regimental comrade was enquiring how I was getting on, and or visits from people I had served with, Roland Jones 026, John himself, Colin Bithell, Colin Butler, Roy Pritchard, Billy Wilson, Ken Pritchard to name but a few, for those who live too far away perhaps a card or phone call, 0151 334 4000.

Great to hear that Bob - "The Kid", as everyone knew John as , is a true Carabinier, full of humour and along with his best pal Geordie Heason ( now sadly RIP) formed a brilliant double act ! Please pass on my very best wishes to John for a speedy recovery. John (JKW)
